Apple Loops

Select the Apple Loops in the folder and drag them into the Loop Browser.

The loops are added to the Apple Loops library and indexed. When this process is finished, the loops are directly available in the Loop Browser.

If you drag a folder of loops that are located on the same drive and partition as the Loop Browser, the loops will be left at their current location, and an alias of the folder will be created in ~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops.

If the loops are located on a different drive or partition, you are asked whether you want to copy them to the loop library, or index them at their current location (loops added from optical media are always copied).

If you choose to copy them, the folder containing the loops are copied to ~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops/.

If you choose to index them at their current location, an alias to the folder is created in ~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops/.

ACIDized wavs

The carefully designed and edited acidized .wav files can be used in every major sampling/looping device on the market. Since every DAW or sample player handles ACID Loops differently, please refer to the manual of the audio software you use to find out how to use ACID Loops with that particular software.

Is Guitar Kitchen compatible with Kontakt 4?

Guitar Kitchen relies on the “Time Machine Pro” time and pitch shifting algorithm in Kontakt 5. This algorithm sounds much much better than the “Time Machine 2” algorithm in Kontakt 4. That is why we decided to produce it for Kontakt 5.

There will be a Kontakt 4 version of the library soon, but it will have the significant limitation of “Time Machine 2”.

How do I open the .zip files?

.zip files are a compressed data format that is cross-platform compatible. If you’re interested in a more technical description of the format you may read all about .zip over on Wikipedia

Mac:

Mac OS X has an archive utility included that will both create and open .zip archives. Usually you can just double-click the downloaded archive and it will unpack.

Windows:

There are a couple of free utilities that will expand .zip archives. You can find a selection of free utilities over on download.com. The previous link had all the search options set for Windows, but this may change due to the way download.com handles their searches. If the results don’t come up, then please use their search box to search for “zip”.
